Description

Switching module, chassis and data processing device Technical Field The present invention relates to a switch module, and more particularly to a switch module for facilitating the maintenance and replacement of components, and a chassis and a data processing apparatus having the switch module. Background With the rise of big data, machine learning, internet of things and numerous network platforms, the demands for servers in life are increasing. When the components in the server need to be maintained or replaced, the chassis must be removed from the cabinet first due to the heavy weight and large volume of the server, so that the maintenance and replacement of the components become less easy. In addition, the disassembly and handling of the chassis also increases the risk of personnel safety. Disclosure of Invention According to an embodiment, the adapter module of the present invention is adapted to be disposed in a housing and electrically connected to or disconnected from at least one electronic component. The switching module comprises a bracket and an operating piece. The operating piece is arranged on the bracket. When the operating piece is positioned at a locking position, the bracket is locked with the shell, and at least one electronic component is electrically connected with the switching module. When at least one electronic component is electrically disconnected from the switching module, the operation piece can be switched from the self-locking position to a releasing position so as to release the bracket from the shell. According to one embodiment, the chassis of the present invention includes a housing and the adapter module described above. The switching module is arranged on the shell. According to one embodiment, a data processing apparatus includes a chassis. The case comprises a shell and the switching module. The switching module is arranged on the shell.
